Richard Shute writes: The Cheetahs are boosted by the return of Springbok pair Johan Goosen and Coenie Oosthuizen on the bench, but will name an unchanged starting XV from the one that dominated the Stormers last weekend. Ludeke shakes up his outfit, dropping Jacques-Louis Potgieter and JJ Engelbrecht as the men from Pretoria look to hold off their conference rivals. If the Cheetahs can secure the ball in the loose, they will go a long way towards upsetting their hosts.

AAP writes: The 10th-placed Bulls have failed to score a try in their last two matches, going down 15-9 to the Force last week, and only kicking four penalties against the Waratahs the week before. They'll be glad their horror four-week Australasian tour is over, as they are undefeated this year at Loftus. They've tweaked their backline, with Junior World Cup winning players William Small-Smith and Handre Pollard in the starting team for centre JJ Engelbrecht and flyhalf Jacques-Louis Potgieter. The Cheetahs starting side is unchanged following their win over the Stormers.
